Money from heaven or ?
This story got me thinking http://www.myfoxdetroit.com/dpp/news..._by_Loose_Cash
Your driving down the expressway when an armored cars doors fly open. Money begins to fly out the back door at you. People are stopping to grab what they can. Do you return it or ? |
"If it ain't yours, leave it alone."
(Unless you want to be helpful and return it to the lawful owner.) |
Return it to the owner. Minus a reasonable Finder's Fee-of course. (grin)
|
Return to owner.
|
i'd return it, but it sure would be hard...
|
I'd just keep going.

Where's it from?
EDIT. Written in haste as I had to catch a bus.
Depends where it came from. I don't know about US Banks but UK banks were bailed out by the government (taxpayer) but they still give incredible bonuses to staff who were directly responsible for screwing things up. Fred Goodwin (ex chief of Royal Bank of Scotland) gets £693,000 pension per year for the rest of his life plus a multi million £ bonus. RBS made me bankrupt 10 years ago and my credit rating's been affected ever since. After the case legal advice was they acted improperly and I could go back to Court to ask that the bankruptcy be overturned, but that it would cost approximately £2000 to do this. I didn't have £2000.......... In comparison, last year RBS was within 24 hours of being declared insolvent, so the government stepped in and now owns 68% of it, but they still pay that greedy bastard £13,326 PER WEEK for the rest of his worthless life. OK, he's moved abroad on the grounds that if he were in the U.K. his life expectancy might be a bit short, but if the found money came from RBS, I'd take and keep as much as I possibly could and smile as I did it. |
Morality is relative?

No, when it came down to it, OF COURSE I'd return all of it, morality is NOT relative, but its awful hard to "Do the Right Thing" when every day you read of crooks in gov't & business stealing megabux & getting away w/it...And those are the ones who've screwed up & we hear about it...There's prolly 2-3X that do it, get away w/it, & we NEVER hear about it...

Well as combwork put it RBS screwed him over and in all fairness "owes" him.
